Black Death Script In Medieval Europe, trading was very common. Ships would be in and out of ports every day, all day. This was going to change. In October 1347, 12 Genoese trading ships docked at the Sicilian port of Messina after a long journey through the Black Sea.. When the people gathered to greet the ships, they met the most horrifying surprise: many of the sailors aboard were dead or gravely ill. The people noticed mysterious black boils that oozed blood and pus. Seeing this, the people gave the mysterious illness ?Black Death?. Early Morning at home owners house: Berta is laying in her bed. She is over the covers.She is starting to wake up. Homeowners:: Why are you not up working? Get up this instant! Berta: I can?t get up. I don?t feel well.
